What state are you in?
I am in Colorado and a couple tricks would be to get a MED badge if your state requires you to do so, brush up on your states rules and regulations, and gather a general knowledge of cannabis including market pricing. When considering hiring someone for sales in my company those are the main things that stand out to me when viewing resumes! Some states cannabis industries are struggling right now, I am only well educated on Colorados market though. I am happy to answer anymore questions you may have!

Take every webinar out there offered by you state lawyers association. And join the cannabis commission. There is not for bootstrap entrepreneurs as the costs and limited tax deductions will put companies in the red out of the gate. Good luck and keep posting.

What type of job In cannabis are you looking for?

If you can, getting state registered would be a big leg up on the competition. Also the number of jobs in the state is going to depend upon the maturity of the cannabis program in that state. Rhode Island for example which recently passed legalization should grow quite a bit in the next couple of years.

Hello. What exactly are you looking for and where are you located?
